Interviews with Park Personnel on Jobs and Career Opportunities

From Darren Smith, for About.com

Click on a state link below to find information on state park jobs, including requirements and application procedures within each state. In addition, you'll find a series of interviews with park rangers, park managers, wildlife biologists, and other park personnel. Through these interviews, park personnel share their experiences about how they got started working in state parks, what education and training is required, and what are some of the rewards and challenges of working in the park system. In addition they provide helpful tips for all types of park jobs, whether you are interested in working as a summer intern or considering work in the park system as a career opportunity.

You can also search the state park interviews by specific job title. I hope you'll check back frequently as I'll be adding more states and new interviews every day.
